In our development, it is not uncommon to adopt LSI that is not sold to the general public, but there are unexpected challenges. This is because there are no application notes, and we do not know which registers to set in what order to obtain the desired data. This situation arises because, when a specific user is expected to make a large purchase, the LSI provider offers close support, which can lead to the device being released before the application notes. Similarly, in the development of "reference boards" for special LSI from semiconductor manufacturers, we encounter the same issues. In this case, we can obtain the desired information by asking customers during development, so we are not greatly troubled. However, during evaluation experiments, if there are unexpected behaviors of the device (from a semiconductor design perspective), we may not receive immediate answers even if we ask questions. Both those who use and those who create "reference boards" feel that the evaluation boards from current FPGA manufacturers have become quite excellent. Although our products are no longer available for sale, I have fond memories of the time when we sold evaluation boards for FPGAs and PCI bridge chips. *News is distributed through our company newsletter.
